2012 Presidential Candidates

Websites for the Current Presidential Candidates:

Obama
Ron Paul
Newt Gingrich
Mitt Romney
Gary Johnson
Buddy Roemer

I think that so far, Romney is the candidate who is using socially media the most effectively. He utilizes social media to really connect with his constituents, and this is made evident by the fact that he has more than 1.5 million supporters on Facebook. He also launched his own platform called "MyMitt" that links all of his sites together and offers a place for volunteers and supporters to connect. He has established a very strong online presence by tweeting consistently, interacting with their supporters, engaging in dialogue, and keeping things personal.




This website and this one both do a great job of analyzing the similarities and differences between the social media campaigns and tactics of all candidates.
